It is revealed that in the past, an antagonist made a career of grooming and abusing young ladies (ages unclear, but implied to be older teens to young twenties). Few details are given and none of his victims are characterized or appear "on-screen." The grooming included hooking them in drugs and luring them into prostitution in an era when the legal system had no interest in listening to "fallen women." It is a plot point that the police knew for some time and could not make charges stick.
